Fischer Transalp 2018

With the US, Norway, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, and Austria represented, the eighth edition of the Fischer Transalp had the most international cast ever. This year’s tour started where Fischer’s roots run deep: in the middle of the ski production facility in Ried im Innkreis, where the creation of brand new touring gear was inspected in detail before the group headed out with top-flight new gear and their mountain guides - extreme athlete Axel Naglich and Fischer’s own Transalp pros - towards the mountains. In Hinterstoder everyone clicked into their skis and immediately started quickly logging serious vertical meters.

With heavy snow, fog, strong wind and rain, the group faced the toughest conditions there could be for crossing the Alps. It is said the journey is the destination. In this spirit the group faced down all challenges that were put in their way.

In the tour diary, the crew reports about their adventures. Find out more:
